Maybe just don't call someone a whiny little _____ for having a dissenting opinion from yours next time, that's all. No need for hyperbole all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment

Husker in WI Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 This tweet is not about us, but check out where we land. That is an insane pressure rate. 1 Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 I think we get spoiled pretty quickly around here. We haven't been perfect on defense and people want White replaced already. We haven't had a defense that stops the run like this in quiet some time and I can't remember a defense since the 90s that didn't have Heisman Suh that gets to the QB as well as this one. We consistently pressure the QB and we stop the run. Could the secondary be better? Yes but we are absolutely headed in the right direction and already have a defense that keeps us in football games by stonewalling the run game, making timely sacks, getting stops after quick turnarounds with their backs against the goal line, and grabbing turnovers in key moments. In my opinion we actually have a defense worth getting excited over for the first time in over a decade even if we give up yards in the pass game. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Stopping the run is first on the list of needs. This defense has done that very well for most of the year. I'll take that at this point in the rebuild. Anyone wanting someone different than White right now is delusional. Not having that great of a secondary may help us keep him around for another year. 😁 2 1 Quote Link to comment

I'll take giving up yards to spread RPO teams for now. We didn't give up major points to any team except Indiana either. 1 Quote Link to comment

And what's even more amazing about that is how rarely our opponents have to hold to prevent sacks. Only twice this year! 6 1 Quote Link to comment

Those calling for white to be fired are morons but this defense has vastly underperformed compared to expectations. as I’ve stated multiples times, we’ve greatly benefited from a cakewalk of a schedule in terms of offenses we’ve faced. 1. we got torched in the passing game against Wisconsin. Many of those we know they are throwing and we still get torched. Thank god the offense was humming, finally, on Saturday, but some of those quick scores by wiscy late were simply inexcusable. I think we gave up over 400 yards to an offense that just canned their coordinator and we were bailed out early by missed field goals 2. USC not only passed all over us, they ran right thru us 3. UCLA did whatever they wanted to do for the vast majority of that game Outside of Indiana, UCLa and USC our run defense has been great. But this defensive staff needs a 2nd look in the off-season. We have guys in the secondary getting nfl draft praise and they were dreadful this year. Our linebackers are still some of the slowest in the conference. Our 3rd down conversion defense is middle of the pack. What does this line look like with nash and Ty moving on? i am incredibly optimistic about some of the younger guys for sure. But I’m not gonna get caught up in the much deserved positivity of this past Saturday and say this defense has been stellar all year 1 2 Quote Link to comment
